Dinner out with a friend. Friday July 24th 5:45pm . Pros - nice menu with 55+ discount section. Great tasting house made iced tea. Comfortable seating. Good size portions. Broccoli came pre-buttered & salted, perfectly tender. . Meh - Meatloaf was okay, but not bad, but not outstanding. Could have better texture and spices. Same can be said for the mashed potato and gravy. . Cons - Found a long eyelash on my plate! Luckily it wasn't on the food but there could have been more that I didn't see. I mentioned it to the server who did not apologize, but did take our desserts off the check. It was a surprise when we got our bill and she did not mention it. read more

For a person that cooks in the kitchen that person needs better attitude cuz he always complains about his coworkers that he has to do everybody's job that people are lazy and managers don't do anything read more

I can't really complain. The food has always been decent anytime we've been here. The service has always been good. The prices aren't terrible and it's always been quiet inside. Are there better places? Sure but it's not bad. read more

Need better Cooks better people with better manners better service some people are lazy

Went for a late breakfast on Sunday. Asked for scrambled eggs with American cheese on top and a well done English muffin. Muffin was cooked, but not well done. Eggs had cheddar cheese slathered over them. Fast service. Very affordable. read more

From the time you walk into the door, Service there is always so rude, nasty or snarky. No manners always pushy.

I am absolutely baffled as to why this wonderful establishment has only a 2 star rating. As for good food, good service, cleanliness, and friendless, I'd give 10 stars if I could. Not only the waitress (who gave me a mascara recommendation because she had lashes for daysss) but also the manager were super nice and actually CARED how our food and service were. Excellent. I'd choose them over Cracker Barrel any day - especially if they started selling sundresses. read more

Good service clean. Food took a bit long for one other customer in the restaurant over all 5 star they give kids cookies freeeeeee

Food was very bad took over an hour to get the table and all we got was some eggs I hate this place very much and hope they go out of business read more

I eat dinner at this restaurant occasionally when I'm in the area. Most of what I've tried is pretty good. Nothing is ever very hot, more like warm. The portion size on some meals doesn't match the price. There should be more on the plate. All in all, it's a good place to get a decent sit down meal. The problem I have with this location is the service. It lacks in a few areas. First I want to add, I'm not blaming the servers. They do a good job for what they have to do. There simply isn't enough of them. Typically I see 2 during dinner time through the evening. Not only do they wait tables, they play hostess, cashier, bus tables, and clean when they have a free second. In my opinion that is just poor management. I don't know if this location has a manager. I've only seen one once. And that one time she brought our food to the table, put it down and walked away. Didn't ask if we needed anything else or offer to get us refills. When it's time to pay, most people end up standing at the register waiting for someone. That someone is always one of the waitress's that has to stop attending to their tables to cash patrons out. One of the waitress's, who usually waits on me, is always there. I can't remember not seeing her there any night I have visited. She is really good at what she does. I wish they had more staff, other than 2, so she could really shine and make more tips. It's sad to see her have to be everywhere with no one, other than the other waitress, to help. I wish I knew her name. Next time I am in I am going to speak with a manager, if there is one. read more

Food was soooooooo gooodddd I came in here and smashed the tremendous 12. Definitely affordable

It's a chain. With chain food. But I freakin' love their muffins! Maybe it's because I can't bake a muffin that large and moist, but whatever they do, they do it right! I don't care what I order, I just want to add a muffin to it. That's what's so great about the breakfast, because with most of the breaky meals you can opt to add on a muffin! And don't you worry, I do! It doesn't matter whether its cinnamon, blueberry, banana nut or strawberry... They're all delish! I will also note that I love their bread bowl salads as well. You see a theme?! It's the baked goods! So you try and get the salad to be all healthy and you end up eating the whole bowl it came in! Whoops. I only wish there were more Perkins closer to Pittsburgh. Or maybe this is just a nice treat when I'm outside the Burgh. All I know is that I'm most certainly getting a muffin when I'm here! read more

Have a "classic eggs Benedict" on the menu. Except they use a sunny side up egg instead of a poached without telling you. The worst part is the manager doesn't care. Sunny side up eggs don't go on a classic eggs Benedict. Their French toast is eggy because they don't stir their batter. Save your money and go elsewhere. The manager and staff don't care. read more

For the price the food doesn't live up. Ordered appetizers and drinks. Ordered burgers for the kids and steak medallions. Our appetizers came five minutes before the main dish. Too hot to eat. The main dish arrived late and was poorly presented plus it was so small. How can you charge so much for tiny pieces of steak that barely set the standard. The hot chocolate tastes of chemicals. For the almost seventy dollars we spent for four, we could have gone to MacDonalds and been happier. The wait staff was exceptional apart for errors not her fault. The wait staff gets five stars. But the food isn't worth it. Try Kings. Much better food for your money. read more

Honestly one of the worst restaurants I've ever been to, granted I'm from California where we are use to unique dining experiences with food that surpasses the subpar mark-- nonetheless service was terrible and the food lacked any amount of effervescence. Don't eat here-- go to Cracker Barrel next door. read more

The food is ok, call ahead and get it to go b/c the wait staff is not so wonderful. Filthy place with raggedy and worn out furnishings.

If you've been to Perkin's, this won't be a surprise or disappointment. Staff is friendly & courteous. The food is the norm for Perkins. Feel safe going here. read more

Join their email club and u get buy one get one free on Wednesday's and other good deals. Well worth the trouble!!

I love there food been here a lot and I love it it's amazing there waiting are nice really fast workers

On my way home from Erie with my family, we decided to stop in here since we had a good experience a few months back at the Erie location. The restaurant was over half empty. After standing to be seated for 5 minutes we were told they had no more seating and it would be a long wait since they were so backed up, or we can just go somewhere else. I looked around, laughed at the empty establishment and told my family lets go. Couldn't tell you if the foods decent or not. Never again. read more

Service was extremely slow & food was also a big wait.....waited over 45 minutes for our food. We considered walking out & going somewhere else, but didn't want to stiff the waitress. The food was typical chain restaurant food, my fried chicken & French fries were a little overdone, my sons breakfast meal was nicely prepared. Had it not been for the wait,I would have rated the restaurant higher, however I can't get past the wait time. read more

Their food is average. Breakfast is pretty good but the rest of their menu is below average for a restaurant. You would be better off making dinner at home. The 'steak' that I ordered was little more than hamburger. Skip it and go somewhere else unless you don't have a choice. read more

First off I would like to note I created an account and downloaded this app just to leave this review...anyway I got there and had to wait about 6-7 minutes before someone seated me. Mind you plenty of waitresses and someone who looked like a manager walked right by me. After I was seated I was again ignored by my waitress. It was probably 10 minutes before I even got my order taken. By that time I didnt really care and I just wanted to leave. The food was good, but I'll definitely be looking elsewhere next time I decide to go out. Somewhere with better customer service. read more

Horrible, we had to wait to be seated. When we finally were seated 10 min later we still didn't see our waitress no drink order. They were not even that busy. No management on the floor. We left and went to kings. Services right away and they are busy. That waitress lost out. We are big tippers! read more
